Join us in the beautiful surroundings of Kruttverket for an evening of intimate music transcending place and time. This marks the first exchange between Scottish Oslo residents Dopey Monkey, and from Tokyo, MUSIC for ISOLATION making their Oslo debut.
Dopey Monkey
Dopey Monkey is a collaboration between Scottish composers and musicians Martin Lee Thomson (Euphonium) and Danielle Price (Tuba). An art ensemble with ambitions to venture beyond the traditional boundaries associated with their instruments, Dopey Monkey’s journey since their formation in 2015 has seen the duo explore a range of mixed media creations, and present bespoke performances that highlight the inquisitive dynamic of the duo’s partnership.
MUSIC for ISOLATION
Tokyo-based duo of Japanese and British musicians Rie Takeuchi (baritone saxophone) & Gideon Juckes (tuba).
Intimate music at the crossroads of folk, classical, improvisation, tradition and innovation.
They have just returned from an artists residence in the Arctic archipelago of Svalbard, where they have written new music inspired by the history, culture and environment of the region, and in particular the changes being brought about by global warming.
